Bad TV Premises

[mikeyboy]

Ron just mentioned, that as a goof, they should film a bunch of bad TV premises so they could get a meeting with TV people and pitch the bad premises, just to see their reactions.  An example was an elevator game show like Cash Cab.  Any ideas for bad premises?  Post them here.

Also there should be a show about the backstage workings of a popular game show.&nbsp;&nbsp; It would be like 30 Rock only with spokesmodels and&nbsp;a panel of judges.

[boeman]

<p>so ahhh... we take this radio show... and we tape it... then we start up our own pay per view network for it... ahhh, and we charge all the people paying to listen to our radio show to watch it well after it played live... ah... </p>

There is this guy Named Big A and he tells stories to childern and takes them through the magic of reading.&nbsp; Some books are required to be two shows to finish.&nbsp; Kind of like Reading Rainbow.

With Ron B playing the Jerker, Earl as Sassy Sapphire, the black maid with an attitude (sorta like Florence from Jeffersons), and Big A as the city of Gayopolis.</p><p>or</p><p>&quot;My Mouse Is Frozen&quot;, played out like those sitcoms of the 70s</p>
